Your god is a malevolent prick.

As I mentioned earlier in one of my posts, I believe God does not involve himself in the wordly affairs - so he is neither responsible for finding someone's lost key, or helping TimTebow throw a pass, or solve world hunger. It's all up to man to use the God-given gifts to solve these problems.

how convenient. so, he created people with all this divisiveness and is now sitting back with a scotch and a cigar enjoying the chaos? well if it's all the same, i'll use my "god-given" gift to think you are hallucinating.

when you generalize and broaden the idea with terms like "world hunger", you minimize the sting. look at that individual kid there, why didn't he get to any god-given gifts? perhaps, not feed the kid directly, but put it in someone else's heart to see that that child eats and often.

The pic is meant to show folks like you how credulous and small minded you are, and remind you about what your god doesn't do. Which is anything, obviously.

Ok well maybe what I am saying is the God placed us here to help these people. In both other instances God didn't just make things appear or happen. In both of the other instances the team put forth the effort to win, and the lady kept looking for her keys.. The principle here is that God HELPED a process that was already in action.

In turn My first post points to the lack of action to help feed the starving. How or why should God help if we do not care enough to? Those people would be far better off in the hands of a loving God than in the hands of the people who let them starve.

Appearenly there was a wooshing sound that you all seem to have heard but mistakenly indenified the source.

And by interesting I mean the insipid tediousness that you can only get from a broken record.

Just because you personally tire of hearing the truth does not actually change it. If you see a need like this one it is up to you to fill it. Stop blaming others for your own short comings. Learn to act rather than criticize those who do.

Wow, never have I felt so bad for laughing so hard.
It was the "Are you fucking serious?" expression that did it for me.

It looks like you did not understand Drich's post.

God simply empowers magnifies our own efforts. If you see malevolences then you need to look no further than the mirror.

Drich's never going to see it people. Why bother? Disturbing really, since even Christian clearly understood the OP.

On a side note. At least Christian admits that god isn't helping you find your car keys.

Makes me glad I don't believe in a personal god. They tend to be pricks

Lol I'm far more benevolent than that asshole you bow down to. Does the Lord's dick taste nice?
